I visited Haiti in 1984, and when I was there a missionary told us you couldn't understand the Haitian mindset without understanding voodoo. Someone who practices voodoo is always seeing signs everywhere--a world full of omens. I had no personal experience with voodoo while there except for 1 weird occurrence. I was in a store and a person there was visibly spooked by my blue eyes. (I guess that would fall into the omen thing).

Before this earthquake I wasn't aware that there were any people who were glad that the Haitians for living in misery, obviously deserving it, let alone SO MANY who casually justified the Atlantic slave trade and the quake itself.

I visited Haiti in 1984, and when I was there a Voudoun Houngan told us you couldn't understand the American fundie mindset without understanding the supposed inerrancy of the Bible. Someone who practices fundyism is always seeing signs everywhere--a world full of omens. I had no personal experience with fundyism while there except for 1 weird occurrence. I was in a store and a person there was visibly spooked by my blue eyes. (I guess that would fall into the omen thing).

I visited Kentucky in 1984, and when I was there a Baptist told us you couldn't understand the Kentucky mindset without understanding Rapturists. Someone who practices Rapturism is always seeing signs everywhere--a world full of omens. I had no personal experience with Rapturists while there except for one weird occurrence. I was in a store and a person there heard a semi blow its air-horn. She lifted her eyes heavenward, fell to her knees and screamed "I'm HERE, Jesus; I'm HERE!" She thought the horn was the signal for the Rapture. (I guess that would fall into the omen thing).

"It’s always so sad to see so many suffering. But if there was ever a country that needed to turn to the one and only true God it would be Haiti. There's a common saying about Haiti, “that Haitians are 70 percent Catholic, 30 percent Protestant, and 100 percent voodoo.” Let’s pray they start Repenting and putting their Faith in Jesus alone. Only God can take a tragedy of this magnitude and turn it into Glory for His kingdom. Have Mercy Lord… "
